The Best Christmas Light Installation in Carmichael, CA

Bring some holiday cheer to your home, restaurant, storefront or trees this Christmas season, and leave the climbing to us. Santa's Lights offers the best Christmas light installation services in Carmichael and all of the Sacramento area, and our pricing includes the lights, storage, and maintenance. For information about our services and availability, please get in touch. Schedule your installation before our holiday season calendar fills up.

Booking in October is always smart. Early reservations give you more calendar flexibility and unlock discounts of up to 15 percent. By November, many of the most popular time slots are already gone, so early scheduling guarantees you enjoy a full holiday season of lights.

Holiday Lighting That Fits Every Property

Our approach is simple: you tell us what you want, and we make it happen. We'll visit your home or review photos to get a sense of the layout, then prepare a clear estimate. Some families want a subtle roofline design in bright white. Others prefer colorful displays, accented with wreaths, pathway lights, or wrapped trees. We source commercial-grade LEDs that shine brighter, last longer, and resist weather damage, which means your display looks great from the day we put it up until the day we take it down.

Carmichael has a mix of properties, from ranch-style homes near Mission Avenue to larger estates with sprawling oaks. Our team has the equipment and experience to decorate single-story homes, multi-story buildings, and commercial storefronts. If you want your palm trees wrapped, your driveway lined, or your restaurant patio dressed in bistro lights, we have the resources to do it.

Safe and Professional Christmas Lighting Installation

Christmas lights look magical when they're finished, but the process can be risky if you do it yourself. That's why homeowners and business owners call us! We arrive with the ladders, harnesses, and gear needed to install lights safely on rooftops, tall trees, and fences.

Santa's Lights is fully insured. That means our liability and workers' compensation coverage protect your property and our crew. Clients often tell us they feel relieved knowing the work is handled by professionals instead of trying to take it on themselves.

We also treat every property with care. Siding, paint, landscaping, and gutters are never damaged in the process. When we're done, the only difference you'll see is a display that makes your home or business glow.

Post-Holiday Removal and Storage

When the season ends, our work continues. Starting January 2, we begin removing lights in Carmichael. HOA-regulated neighborhoods are handled first, since many require lights to be gone by mid-January. Every takedown is done with the same care we use during installation. Lights are packed, stored at our facility, and made ready for the next year.

Because the lights are purchased on your behalf during the first season, they remain yours after that. We store them so they never get damaged in a garage or attic. Each year, you only pay for installation since the lights are already yours. If something doesn't work the next time we hang them, we repair or replace it.

Commercial and Event Lighting

Santa's Lights isn't only for homes; we provide lighting for restaurants, retail shops, offices, and multi-family properties throughout Carmichael. Commercial clients along Fair Oaks Boulevard and Marconi Avenue often add roofline lights, tree wraps, or festive window accents to attract customers.

We also install bistro lighting and permanent LED systems. These options are popular for restaurants and event venues that want an atmosphere that extends well beyond the holidays. With smartphone controls and programmable colors, permanent systems allow clients to adjust displays for different holidays, birthdays, or special occasions.

Why Families and Businesses in Carmichael Choose Santa's Lights

With more than 225 five-star reviews, our reputation speaks for itself. Clients appreciate that we manage every detail: design, installation, maintenance, takedown, and storage. Instead of spending hours on ladders or wrestling with tangled strands, families can focus on enjoying the season, and businesses can share the spirit with customers.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does holiday lighting typically cost in Carmichael?

Most projects start at $799 for a simple roofline display on a single-story house. Homes with multiple stories, large trees, or more elaborate designs can increase the investment. Quotes always include installation, maintenance during the season, takedown, and storage.

Are there packages to choose from?

Yes. Santa's Lights has three main packages. The Grinch, from $799, delivers a clean roofline design. The Rudolph, starting at $1,149, adds large pre-lit wreaths with bows. The Full Grizwold begins at $2,499 and transforms the entire property with trees, bushes, ground décor, and more. Each package can be adjusted to fit your style and property.

Do you only work in Carmichael?

No. While we install displays throughout Carmichael neighborhoods like Del Dayo and Barrett Hills, we also serve clients in Sacramento, Rancho Cordova, Fair Oaks, and across Placer and El Dorado Counties.

What types of lights are available?

We install LED C9 bulbs for rooflines and mini-lights for trees, shrubs, and fences. Popular styles include warm white for elegance and multi-color strands for festive energy. Add-ons like garlands, wreaths, and ground lighting are available for a complete look.

Is your team insured?

Yes. We carry liability and workers' compensation insurance. That coverage protects our installation crews while also giving clients peace of mind that their property is safeguarded during the process.

Who owns the lights once they're installed?

The lights are purchased during your first year and remain yours after that. We store them at our facility to keep them in top condition. In future years, you only pay the installation fee.

Do Carmichael HOAs or the city require permits for holiday lights?

Permits are not required for temporary residential holiday displays. HOAs, however, often set rules. In Del Dayo Estates, many require lights to be removed by mid-January. Some communities limit flashing strands or music-synced displays to avoid disturbing neighbors. Others request that cords be placed so they don't cross sidewalks. Our crew is familiar with these requirements and prioritizes HOA homes in our January removal schedule.

Do you offer permanent or non-seasonal lighting?

Yes. Santa's Lights installs permanent systems that can be controlled with an app, allowing color changes for holidays or special occasions. We also set up bistro lights for patios, restaurants, and event spaces, which can be enjoyed year-round.
